Ryobi fan face off 

It's nice to see a fellow Ryobi fan reviewing Ryobi fans.

Just picked up this fan!! Got the deal at home depot, purchase the 18V Lithium Starter Kit (4Ah Battery 2Ah and Charger) for $99.99 and got the Whisper fan for free. My wife and I are heading to Loudon NH Tomorrow morning with our old Lance Legend 880 Truck Camper (boon docking) for the Races and need a fan for over night trying to sleep (its going to be hot). Got the Batteries charging now. Great job on the review!! New Ryobi fan here! I just registered everything with Ryobi and started looking for reviews on the fan, looks like i made a good decision!

Pretty handy little fans. I have (I believe the first version) the p3310 and the hybrid p3320.

I have the old one and it’s a godsend camping when it’s 45c out

Thanks. Helpful comparison. Your measuring device is clever and effective.

Love the comparison 😎I have the new model and I love it👌🏽

Holy crap man, where did you get the ryobi green shoes? Those are pretty cool, as a ryobi nut as well I want a pair. My wife would die if I got some!!! FYI, as an engineer I personally love the pin wheel test. Simple but more telling than some $80,000 test to prove the same outcome, great job.

Nice review, thinking to order new one despite having couple of older ones

Great idea with the pinwheel 👍

That was excellent Ryobi should give you a donation I have five of the old fans and three of the new clip on ones and three of the really big ones but because of your video I will be buying three of the new ones as well I would like to see if you put both fans on high how long would the three amp hour battery last on each fan side-by-side but this was a really great video

Fantastic! Glad you did this retest

Nice test thanks! 😁👍👍🇺🇸

I don't think that was a fair comparison. You had the old style fan pointing upwards and didn't lift the windmill high enough.

I tested this on my ecoflow and on full blast this new ryobi fan only runs only about 14 watts. That's even far more efficient than my dyson fan. And dyson fans were the most energy efficient before I got the ryobi. I will be this taking it camping this weekend powered by my ecoflow and a solar panel. I can run this thing indefinitely. Hell I might just buy another one. I already have 2 of those ryobi clamp fans but the bigger model is more practical for a few families.

Great Review. Ryobi always comes out with some great tools. I was wondering if you could do a review/ comparison of the 12" brushless whisper chainsaw. Thank you.

I've had 2 of the new ones and they don't last. The blow harder than the old one, but the fan blade starts spinning very slow after a while. My old one still works perfect. I babied the new ones and never dropped it and both quit on me.

I would love to see a review on the bug zapper too

I just bought one of the new ones and been trying to figure out the best way to attach it to a golf cart.

And if the 12 amp hour battery is worth the price over the 7.5 amp hour just a couple of suggestions

With the large ecosystem of lifestyle options, I think it's incumbent upon Ryobi to come out with larger batteries. 12ah 18 volt and a 15ah 40 volt.

My brother has the older model, I just got the new model during Ryobi days, the low setting (1) makes an annoying humming sound but I doubt I'll need to have it on low.

So what are the running times?

Interesting comparison! Anyone figured out how to disassemble the 'Whisper' version so it can be thoroughly cleaned?

You've got to able to clean the fan blades off to keep the air flow up and noise down. Can you take it apart?

How long does it actually last at each setting? Cause i use the old one for blackouts mostly, but excellent review and comparison on both models 👍👍👍

The new one not having the hanging hook is going to hurt sales because dog show people hang it on crates

M12 fan or this fan which one is better ?

Did your older fan ever rattle on low speed? I've had mine for almost 4 years and it has developed a rather annoying rattle on the low setting.

Where did you get that Ryobi Cup? And what a great video, Thank you for taking the time to make it.

Battery life how long it lasts

I love my old Ryobi fan but my two complaints were only two settings low and high, a mid setting would be great second complaint is on high it is LOUD for such a small fan.

I have the RYOBI ONE+ Can you please tell me, why it has prongs in the back of the fan? They are deep and cannot be connected to the electrical outlet 😂😢😭please tell me.

Both fans are hybrid.

How long the battery last on high settings?

I have and use the old one. My complaint is thr swivel...when it's on high, the wind speed moves the fan on its swivel and changes position by itself

RPM of the fan tells you NOTHING about how the fan performs. Need to use an anemometer to get real numbers. The "Whisper' crap is just marketing speak to say we are using a five blade propeller vs a three blade. The amount of air moved by a three blade is almost ALWAYS higher than a five blade, however the amount of NOISE is usually higher on a three blade due to the way air moves past the blades. Blade PITCH and SHAPE determine the amount of air actually moved along with noise generated. The size of the blades has nothing to do with the amount of noise generated. The problem with most non-professional tests is that they don't really provide any REAL measured data. It is all anecdotal. I have yet to find ANYONE who actually has controlled testing to show REAL numbers: CFM on each setting, energy consumed on each setting along with battery run time.

Buy a cheap anemometer

Gotta say... I'm not a fan. 😁🤣

Are you doing a review on the ryobi bug zapper 🦟
